ST. VINCENT'S CHURCH, SUNDAY'S WELL, CORK.- The sketch shows, seated picturesquely on an eminence above the river Lee, the Catholic Church of St. Vincent, which is the principal ecclesiastical edifice in the suburb of the city of Cork, kown as Sunday's Well. It is so called from an ancient spring, said to have been made sacred to Druid rites before the era of Christianity in Ireland, and afterward utilized by the Catholic Fathers for baptismal purposes.
